The bed should fit, but since it's longer the rear bumper likely won't without modifications.

I just put a marlin bed on my regular tf2 and it bolted right on, so the opposite should be just as easy

The bed will fit the Marlin chassis. You will need to drill 2 new holes for the body posts in the bed.

I swapped to some Marlin TF2 frame and yes you'll need to drill two new holes in the bed. I filled the old holes with Styrene and painted to match.
